I just learned something about my young blue and splash moderns. I have 9 right now and split them up about four weeks ago. I put them back together in a larger pen and they lived up to their name. They were in the pen for about 2 hours. I looked out the kitchen window at the pen and it was like a cage match. The group that was all young cockerels around 7 weeks old was attacking the 1 male and 4 pullets that I was going to breed from. I had to take the 4 cockerels back out and put them in their old pen. They were all raised up together and only apart for 4 weeks. I guess the bantams take after their large fowl ancestors.

use some kind of treat and make them stretch up for it. Over a little time they will stretch up when they see your hand coming over them.
